Dragon Force sequel, richer and more ambitious. Refined command system, more playable characters, expanded world. Somewhat demanding in Japanese but the first game's foundations help. Excellent for fans.

Story
★★★★★
"Masterful"
Polished illustrations, pitched battles of hundreds of soldiers and detailed portraits: the strategy game unfurls a heroic fresco of striking breadth. The care of the design and the readability of the clashes compose a living epic. This art direction, rich and elegant, stands as a jewel of the genre.
Broad and heroic, Sega's music unfurls a martial orchestra and epic themes that raise each great battle to the rank of a martial fresco. Triumphant brass and vibrant strings galvanise the large-scale strategy. This symphonic richness, noble and rousing, elevates the epic ambition of this tactical jewel.
Picking up its war-ravaged continent, this sequel deepens court intrigue and rival ambitions against a backdrop of epic strategy. The tale gains in darkness and stakes, weaving fragile alliances and betrayals. Never released outside Japan, this ambitious entry brilliantly extends the war fresco of the first.

"Obsessive"
Manoeuvring your generals and their massive troops across a continent to reconquer extends the conquest formula with a denser narrative and more readable battles. Every province taken opens up new allies and objectives. The repetition of the fights lurks, but the large-scale strategy and the cast of characters hold you for a long time.
Difficulty
"Balanced"
Lifespan
"Massive"
Richer than its predecessor, this sequel adds kingdoms, mechanics and great battles to an already generous strategy-RPG formula. Leading a new ruler to unite the continent, managing your armies and exploring it all fills very long hours. That broadened density, faithful to the series' spirit, offers a lifespan enthusiasts savour to the fullest.

The initial pressing, predating the Rev A revision, is generally the most prized by variant collectors. Real scarcity and the absence of any official English alternative sustain a high value and demand that does not let up among collectors.
